Behind the Scenes: How we host school STEM events
Delivering an impactful STEM event takes more than a great idea — it takes planning, experience and a dedicated team. At Millennium Point, we’ve spent years developing a programme of events that excites pupils and supports teachers.
Our events are built around real-world STEM concepts, from sustainable engineering to space science. Behind the scenes, our education and event teams work together to design interactive workshops, presentations and guided tours that fit school learning goals.
Every school is different, and our team helps tailor events in line with curriculum areas, age groups and SEN considerations, while also considering the changing shape of the job market. Our on-site staff handle set-up, safeguarding and technical logistics.
Visits often include a screening in our giant screen Auditorium, and hands-on sessions where pupils get to build, test or create. We also provide downloadable pre-visit and post-visit materials so teachers can extend the learning back in the classroom.
It’s not just about the day itself — it’s about the longer term impact. We want pupils to feel inspired and curious, and give teachers the support they need to make STEM education come alive. That’s what makes a Millennium Point event more than just a trip — it’s an experience designed to last.
